Seeding for Washington DC will be done in the following manner:
Players will be seeded using SC2 Pro Circuit Rank Points. Ties will be broken randomly. Players with no SC2 Rank Points will be seeded randomly. No Players will have SC2 Rank Points until the Washington D.C. Competition.
The top 32 players from the Raleigh event will have Pro Rank Points based on their final placing in Raleigh. So, the top 32 will be seeded according to the amount of Pro Rank Points they have. The other 32 players will be seeded randomly.

UPDATE: Earlier tonight an error on the MLGPro website occurred that was unable to be known about beforehand. The passes went on sale and they sold out so fast that by the time the problem was found, the passes were already "sold out," but we were supposed to have sold 15 more.
To be fair to everyone that was attempting to buy a pass, the last 15 passes were not added afterwards. The rest of these 15 passes are going to be sold tomorrow at 23:00 GMT (+00:00) (Wednesday) for $60. Nothing is changing with the tournament structure.
Just a reminder to the TeamLiquid.net community: MLG D.C. Passes will be going on sale September 14, 2010, (this upcoming Tuesday) at 23:00 GMT (+00:00).
Thirty-two (32) passes will be available for purchase ($60 per pass for one player) so if you're wanting to show your stuff at MLG in Washington DC on October 15-17th and battle it out for part of that $7000 prize pool, make sure to buy your pass ASAP because these will go very fast. It should be noted that the Top 16 teams from MLG Raleigh will receive reserved passes for this Competition.
If you have any questions regarding anything about the event feel free to post in this thread and I'll do my best to answer it. Please do not turn this thread into a 'invite-only vs. open registration' thread. If it gets that way I will ask TL.net to close it.
The link to purchase the pass can be found HERE.
The venue for the event will be the: Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center . Rates begin at $189 + $15 Resort Fee per night and the deadline is September 22nd 2010. The reservation phone number is 301-965-4000. If the Gaylord fills up a secondary hotel should be opened.
